Yesterday i won a sick hand, i had to push with J8o in late position cos i was really short. Got called by a average stack with 99.
Flop: 9TT Turn: T River: T
How sick is this, i won 4 of a kind J high
Other guy called me a moron, rigtard, donk, fish ect, WTF was wrong with me to push J8o I tried to explain him i was short and i had to push any 2 cards but no listening. I can understand his frustration, its the sickest hand i won ever unreal

If he doesn't understand why you pushed he's the fish. Offcourse i can understand his frustration but if he doesn't realize you had to push when he has cooled a bit down than he won't improve his game much. I often think "what a stupid fish" when i get knocked out/crippled in such situations but most of the times i can look back at the hand objectively and learn from it.

yeah thats poker for you,you never know whats gunna come out for you.why we love playing the game.fair enough to theres always comes a time when you have to go.
When you loose to something like that you just have to put it on the account for weird looses. When you call a push, you never know whats gonna happend.
And when you win like that you thanks lady fortune and mr. variance.
